Episode Summary

Welcome to the very first episode of the Come Back to Care podcast!

I’m your host, Nat Vikitsreth, a decolonized, licensed clinical psychotherapist, somatics and social justice practitioner, and founder of Come Back to Care. Through self-reflection, storytelling, and somatic community practice, I work with families as they transform from Autopilot to Bold, Conscious, and Decolonized (ABCD) family building. 

Working with parents, caregivers, and young children is an absolute honor. I’m wholeheartedly excited to have you build this community of care with me!
